The exterior of the hull was "Outrage Grey" (an off-white) and the interior would have been Desert Tan.

With age and sunlight eposure, both can fade to a more off-white color.

Polish an area and use a color fan to match.

If either going with gel or LP pure white...I would dumb it down with black tint so you do not melt your eyes. Pure white looks great but in bright sun can be blinding. I tinted down the hull on my 13 and you would never know the difference unless you have it right beside pure white...my 2 cents...of course that wouuld be for a complete recoating...if matching you need to be a mad scientist!
